Aborto provocado: sua incidência e características; um estudo com mulheres em idade fértil (15 a 49 anos), residentes no subdistrito de Vila Madalena / Induced abortion: its incidence and characteristics; a study of women of childbearing age (15-49 years) living in the sub-district of Vila Madalena

Silva, Rebeca de Souza e 31 March 1992 (has links)
O conhecimento da incidência e das características do aborto provocado, sobretudo o ilegal, é de grande interesse tanto para a Saúde Pública, como para a Demografia. Não obstante, poucos são os estudos na América Latina e no Brasil, que se propõem a investigar sua ocorrência. Ocorre que a conotação de \"crime\", que lhe é atribuída, dificulta sobremaneira sua abordagem. A presente pesquisa foi realizada entre 2.000 mulheres em idade fértil - 15 a 49 anos -, residentes no sub-distrito de Vila Madalena, São Paulo, Brasil, com o objetivo central de aprofundar o conhecimento do aborto provocado, relacionando-o a variáveis sociais, econômicas e demográficas, reconhecidamente ligados à sua ocorrência, e, especialmente à fecundidade. Em caráter experimental, utilizou-se a Técnica de Resposta ao Azar (TRA) que, segundo a literatura internacional, propicia a obtenção de informação mais fidedigna. A avaliação da viabilidade deta técnica é outro objetivo da pesquisa. Pela TRA pôde-se estimar que 41 em cada 1.000 mulheres, provocaram um aborto em 1987, enquanto apenas 8 em 1000 mulheres admitiram, por abordagem direta, terem provocado um aborto nesse período. Os resultados confirmam, por um lado, omissões voluntárias de informação e, por outro, a conveniência de se trabalhar com a TRA. A análise de diferenciais dos abortos ocorridos no transcorrer da vida reprodutiva, identificou as não casadas, as sem nascidos vivos, as com menor nascimentos que o desejado, as que possuem entre 15 e 19 anos de idade, as que verbalizaram aceitar a prática do aborto provocado em qualquer circunstância, como sendo as categorias de mulheres que ao engravidarem, recorrem com maior intensidade ao abortamento provocado. Mediante o estabelecimento de paralelismos entre TRA e abordagem direta, pôde-se evidenciar que as mulheres que mais omitem informação são, em geral, as que mais abortam. A elaboração dos modelos multivariados, por sua vez, permitiu evidenciar que, não possuir restrições à prática do aborto e não ser casada, são potenciais fatores de risco. Ao que tudo indica, enquanto as mulheres não casadas, particularmente as solteiras, recorrem ao aborto para se livrarem de uma gravidez indesejada, as casadas o buscam para manter o número de filhos dentro dos limites desejados ou para espaçar um nascimento de outro. Há razões para se suspeitar que a prática do aborto se intensificará em nosso meio, num futuro próximo. Ao que parece, nem a renda familiar nem a escolaridade, intervêem na opção da mulher pelo aborto. Enfim, apesar das dificuldades existentes em se trabalhar o tema aborto, os resultados conseguidos nesta pesquisa, deste ponto de vista, superaram a expectativa, fundamentalmente, em função do sucesso da TRA. / The incidence and associated factors related with illegal induced abort are areas of interest for Public Health and Demography. Nevertheless, there are few studies in Brazil and others countries of Latin America about it. It\' s possible that this omission can be justified by the fact that abort is considered crime in these countries. This study looks toward filling this lack of infonnation. An specific questionnaire was used to get more trustworthy information, the Randomized Response Technic (RRT). The results of this questionnaire were compared with the usual direct way of getting information. Social, economic and demographic variables related with fertility were studied. The studied population was two thousand women between 15 and 49 years old, the fertile period. They live on Vila Madalena, a neighborhood of São Paulo city, Brazil. The estimate incidence of induced abort in 1987 by RRT was 41/1000 women and by the usual direct way was 8/1000 women. This difference justify the use of the RRT in this kind of research. It was observed that women who more omit information, have more history of abort. The univariate analyses identified the following associated factors with induced abort: not married, without lifeborn children, age between 15 and 19 years old, those who accept the practice of induced abmt in any circumstance, and women with less children then desired. At the multivariate analyses, it remained in the model the following factors: not married and accept the practice of induced abort in any circumstance. Family income and schoollevel were not associated with induced abort in this studied population. The results are coherent with what it\'s expected and they demonstrate the value of the RRT questionnaire.

Kvinnors upplevelser i samband med abort

Bäcklund, Anna, Nilsson, Linda January 2007 (has links)
<p>The treatment that women get from health care staff can influence the experience of the abortion and how women manage to coping the experience emotionally. The aim of this study was to illuminate women’s experiences in connection with an abortion. The findings show that the women’s social situation led them to the decision of abortion. When the women had the pregnancy confirmed many felt unreality. Several women experienced the situation as a crisis. After the abortion most of the women experienced relief, but also guilt towards the abortion. Some knew that they had made the right decision, while others felt regret. Most of the women experienced that the nursing staff treated them well, but some women experienced that the staff was negative, insensitive and ignoring. Most of the women was satisfied with the total support from significant others. To make a satisfying nursing care possible for each woman who seeks abortion, more research is needed about women’s experiences of nursing staff’s treatment.</p>

Fatores associados à interrupção voluntária da gestação : Induced abortion: the experience of men and women from Brazil / Induced abortion : the experience of men and women from Brazil

Dias, Tábata Regina Zumpano, 1981- 27 November 2018 (has links)
Orientador: Renato Passini Júnior / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Ciências Médicas / Made available in DSpace on 2018-11-27T12:03:46Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Dias_TabataReginaZumpano_M.pdf: 2287469 bytes, checksum: 960058f223b535a82e398b29d32d89ff (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: Introdução: A interrupção voluntária da gravidez, proibida no Brasil, pode levar a situações de abortamento inseguro, que é reconhecidamente um grave problema de saúde pública. É necessário conhecer as circunstâncias envolvidas nesta situação para que seja possível compreender melhor o contexto em que as mulheres recorrem a um abortamento, bem como identificar subgrupos com necessidades especiais de atendimento pelos serviços de saúde. Objetivo: Avaliar alguns fatores sociodemográficos e epidemiológicos associados à interrupção voluntária da gestação. Sujeitos e métodos: Estudo descritivo analítico de corte transversal envolvendo o envio de um questionário estruturado e pré-testado a 15.800 funcionários de uma entidade pública do Estado de São Paulo. Os questionários preenchidos pelos participantes foram enviados de volta em envelope resposta pré-selado. Foram preenchidos 1660 questionários (11% de taxa de resposta), nos quais houve 296 gestações indesejadas e, destas, 165 terminaram em aborto induzido voluntário. Foram realizadas análises bivariada e multivariada por regressão de Poisson para estudar a associação entre a ocorrência de um aborto quando diante de uma gravidez indesejada com algumas características sociodemográficas selecionadas. Resultados: Um quinto dos participantes relatou vivenciar uma gravidez indesejada anterior, e 55,7% deles recorreram ao abortamento naquela ocasião. As maiores proporções de decisão e realização do abortamento foram encontradas entre os participantes do sexo masculino (62,1%), que tinham de 18 a 24 anos por ocasião da gravidez de sua parceira (62,3%), sem filhos (58,9%), não unidos (61,7%) e entre os respondentes com escolaridade superior (70,3%). A maioria das interrupções foi realizada por um médico e pouco mais de 10% dos participantes relataram ter feito uso do misoprostol. A maioria dos abortos (45%) realizou-se entre 1980 e 1989. Dentre os respondentes que referiram aborto realizado por médico, mais da metade (54%) ocorreram na mesma década (entre 1980 e 1989). Dentre aqueles que fizeram uso de misoprostol, 58% o fizeram entre 1990 e 1999. Os participantes relataram que 22,9% das mulheres que abortaram necessitaram de atendimento médico após o aborto e 16,6% foram internadas após recorrerem ao aborto. Conclusão: Na amostra estudada foi possível verificar que um de cada dois dos respondentes por ocasião de uma gravidez indesejada optou pelo abortamento. Chama atenção que as pessoas tiveram acesso a condições menos inseguras para interromper uma gestação indesejada, ainda que num contexto de ilegalidade dessa prática / Abstract: Introduction: Unsafe abortion is a serious public health problem in Brazil and other countries where it is considered a crime. It's necessary to understand the context of these abortions to approach the issue . Objective: To evaluate some sociodemographic and epidemiological factors associated with induced abortion. Method: Cross-sectional study. A self-responded questionnaire was sent to 15.800 employees of a public organization. 1660 questionnaires were completed. There were 296 unintended pregnancies and 165 induced abortions. Bivariate and multivariate Poisson regression analyses were performed to explore the association between the occurrence of abortion when faced an unintended pregnancy with some sociodemographic characteristics. Findings: One fifth of respondents reported an unintended pregnancy and 55.7% of those respondents resorted to abortion. The highest rates of abortion were found among male participants (62.1%) who were between 18 and 24-years-old at the time of pregnancy (62.3%), childless (58.9%), not united (61.7%) and with a college education (70.3%). Most of the respondent's abortions were performed by a doctor, and 17.8% of participants reported misoprostol use. Medical attention was necessary for 22.9% of these women after abortion and 16.6% were hospitalized. Most abortions (45%) took place between 1980 and 1989, and 54% of respondents who had abortions in this decade resorted to a doctor. Those who used misoprostol, 58% did between 1990 and 1999. Conclusion: In this sample we observed that half of respondents opted for abortion during an unintended pregnancy. It is noteworthy that people had access to fewer unsafe conditions for stopping an unintended pregnancy, even in the context of illegal practice / Mestrado / Saúde Materna e Perinatal / Mestra em Ciências da Saúde

Sjuksköterskors upplevelser och attityder av att vårda kvinnor som gör planerad abort / Nurses experiences and attitudes of caring for women who make a planned abortion

Tuncer, Melike, Shokatloo, Jasmin January 2012 (has links)
Bakgrund År 1974 framförde svensk författningssamling abortlagen som gav kvinnan rättighet att genomgå en legal abort fram till graviditetsvecka 18. Abort innebär avbrytande av havandeskap som genomförs av två metoder, medicinsk och kirurgisk abort. Sjuksköterskan har en stor roll inom abortprocessen som innefattar tidsbokning, rådgivning, administrering av läkemedel, smärtlindring och efterkontroller. Syfte Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser och attityder av att vårda kvinnor som gör en planerad abort. Metod En litteraturstudie har gjorts för att kunna göra en sammanställning om de studier som finns inom ämnesområdet. De tillämpades elva artiklar varav nio av dessa var kvalitativa och två av dessa var kvantitativa. Artiklarna som valdes till studien kvalitetsgranskades enligt Forsberg och Wengströms (2008) beskrivningar och analyserades med hjälp av deras beskrivningar på hur man analyserar vetenskapliga artiklar. The middle range theory of caring har knutits an till studien.    Resultat Utifrån artiklar som granskats i denna litteraturstudie utvecklades fem teman fram: rätt eller fel att göra abort, otillräckligt stöd till sjuksköterskor, att hantera sina upplevelser och attityder - professionellt förhållningssätt, sjuksköterskors upplevelser och attityder av att uppnå rättvis vård och upplevelser om att uppnå en personcentrerad vård för kvinnor. Diskussion Utifrån studien observeras det att det finns olika upplevelser kring abort som har anknytning till personens kulturella, religiösa och personliga åsikter om det är rätt eller fel att göra abort, som gör abort till ett kontroversiellt ämne där sjuksköterskor ofta blir tvungna att bemöta många känsloladdade och påfrestande situationer. Därför blir det viktigt med mer stöd i form av information, stödsamtal, rådgivning och undervisning till sjuksköterskor för att kunna hantera arbetssituationen och mötet med patienten på ett bättre sätt.

Postoperativ smärta efter kirurgisk abort

Dahl, Lotta, Jangborg, Carina January 2010 (has links)
Pain is common among women undergoing first trimester surgical abortions. At the postoperative unit, department of gynaecology, University Hospital, Uppsala, the goal is that 80 % of the women should rate pain as £ 3 on a numeric rating scale (NRS), when leaving the unit. The aim of the study was to investigate how rating was performed at the unit and to investigate patient’s perceptions of pain after having undergone first trimester surgical abortion. 20 patients (74%) participated in the study. Ninety percent of the patients rated their pain as NRS £ 3 when leaving the unit. Seven patients (35 %) rated their pain as NRS &gt; 3 directly after operation, and 2 (10 %) patients NRS &gt; 3 when leaving the unit. There were no correlations between patient’s age and ratings of pain. There was no difference in rating of pain between patients with prior vaginal delivery and patients who had no prior vaginal delivery. There were no correlations between ratings of pain and gestational age. Conclusion: It is important that patients undergoing first trimester surgical abortions receive adequate pain treatment. The unit’s goal for postoperative pain treatment is achived, 90 % of the patients rated their pain as NRS £ 3 when leaving the unit.

Abort, en kvinnas fria val : En litteraturöversikt om sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av abortvård / Abortion, a woman's freedom of choice : A literature review of nurses’ experiences in abortion care

Rickmer, Josefin, Hörman, Pernilla January 2013 (has links)
Background: The abortion issue raises many ethical, moral and religious aspectsand is therefore well debated worldwide. In the care for an abortion seeking woman, it isimportant that the nurse find a balance between her and the woman's moral opinions aboutabortion in the quest to achieve good care. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe nurses’ experiences of caring for womenundergoing abortion. Methods: Literature review based on ten original articles. Results: Literature review's results highlights two key themes: nurse’s experience of anemotional roller coaster as well as difficulties and challenging experiences at work inabortion care. These two themes consists of three subthemes: to get support in the workthrough to vent thoughts and feelings, how strain and stress affects the nurse's work and as anurse learn to accept the woman’s choice. Discussions: Within abortion care nurses find it difficult dealing with theemotional roller coaster that can occur while they strive to maintain an ethical andprofessional approach. Nurses need support and guidance through difficult and challengingexperiences. / Bakgrund: Abortfrågan väcker många etiska, moraliska samt religiösa aspekter och är därmed väl omdiskuterad världen över. I vårdandet av en abortsökande kvinna är det viktigt att som sjuksköterska finna en balans mellan sina egna och kvinnans moraliska åsikter kring abort i strävandet att uppnå god vård. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att beskriva sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att vårda kvinnor som genomgår abort. Metod: Litteraturöversikt baserad på tio vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultat: Litteraturöversiktens resultatdel belyser två huvudteman: Sjuksköterskans upplevelser av en känslomässig berg- och dalbana samt svårigheter och krävande upplevelser i arbetet inom abortvård. Dessa två teman består av tre subteman: att få stöd i arbetet genom att ventilera tankar och känslor, hur påfrestningar och stress påverkar sjuksköterskans arbete samt att som sjuksköterska lära sig acceptera kvinnans val. Diskussion: Inom abortvård finner sjuksköterskor det svårt att handskas med den känslomässiga berg-och dalbana som kan uppstå samtidigt som de strävar efter att upprätthålla ett etiskt och professionellt förhållningssätt. Sjuksköterskor behöver stöd och vägledning genom svåra och krävande upplevelser.

Asociación entre apoyo social percibido y aborto inducido: estudio en centros maternos infantiles de Lima, Perú

Rodríguez Medina, Angélica Desiree, Sánchez Siancas, Luis Enrique 04 February 2015 (has links)
Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre apoyo social percibido y aborto inducido En mujeres jóvenes de centros maternos infantiles de Lima, Perú. Además, se estimó la prevalencia e incidencia de aborto inducido en esta población. Material y Métodos. Estudio transversal analítico en mujeres de 18 a 25 años de edad. Aborto inducido se evaluó a través de uno de los métodos de Rossier: diferencia del número total de embarazos terminados en aborto en y el número de abortos espontáneos, mientras que apoyo social percibido fue evaluado mediante la escala de DUKE-UNC. Se determinó la asociación entre las variables de interés ajustando por diversos confusores usando modelos lineales generalizados. Resultados: Un total de 298 mujeres fueron enroladas, con una edad media de 21.7 (DE: 2.2). El 43.6% (IC95%: 38.0%–49.3%) presentaba bajos niveles de apoyo social y 17.4% (IC95%: 13.1%– 21.8%) reportó por lo menos algún aborto inducido. La incidencia de aborto inducido fue de 2.37 (IC95%: 1.81–3.11) por cada 100 personas-año de seguimiento. Hubo evidencia de asociación entre el apoyo social percibido y aborto inducido (RR=1.93; IC95%: 1.13–3.30) después de controlar por potenciales confusores. Conclusiones: Existe evidencia de asociación entre bajos niveles de apoyo social percibido y aborto inducido en mujeres de 18 a 25 años. La incidencia de aborto inducido es igual o mayor que otros países donde el aborto es legal. Una gran proporción de mujeres tienen bajos niveles de soporte social. Se requieren estrategias para incrementar el soporte social de las mujeres y reducir las tasas de aborto inducido. / Objective: To determine the association between perceived social support and induced abortion among women from maternal health centers in Lima, Peru. Besides, prevalence and incidence of induced abortion were estimated in this population. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional study enrolling women aged 18 to 25 years. Induced abortion was defined using one of the Rossier methods: difference between the total number of pregnancies ended in abortion and the number of spontaneous abortions, whereas perceived social support was assessed using the DUKE-UNC scale. The association between variables of interest was estimated using generalized linear models adjusting by potential confounders. Results: A total of 298 women were enrolled, mean age 21.6 (SD: 2.2) years. Low levels of social support was found in 43.6% (95%CI 38.0%–49.3%) and 17.4% (95%CI: 13.1%– 21.8%) reported at least one induced abortion. The incidence of induced abortion was 2.37 (95%CI: 1.81–3.11) per 100 persons-year of follow-up. There was evidence of the association between social support and induced abortion (RR=1.93; 95%CI: 1.13–3.30) after controlling for potential confounders. Conclusions: There was evidence of an association between perceived social support and induced abortion among women aged 18 to 25 years. The incidence of induced abortion was similar or higher than countries where abortion is legal. A great proportion of women had low levels of social support. Strategies to increase social support and reduce induced abortion rates are needed.
